    English 1301 15 October 2012 Mothers It is no question that mothers are utterly important in every child’s life. As far as I could remember my mother has always been there for me.

Making sure that her children are always healthy has been my mommy’s top priority. When I was six‚ or seven I can recall going to the corner store with my parents and like most kids I
